AD Connect will sync your on-premises AD or AWS Managed Active Directory with Azure Active Directory
Overview
AD Connect will sync your on-premises AD or AWS Managed Active Directory with Azure Active Directory. This allows you to provide a common identity for your users for Office 365, Azure, and SaaS applications integrated with Azure AD.
AD Connect Sync Features
Use Azure AD connect with ADFS to provide single sign on for Office365 users (password hash sync, pass-through authentication, federation with AD FS, or federation with PingFederate) Filtering options on what to sync, filtering based on domains, OUs, or attributes. Password hash synchronization synchronizes the password hash in Active Directory to Azure AD. The end-user can use the same password on-premises and in the cloud but only manage it in one location. Since it uses your on-premises Active Directory or AWS AD as the authority, you can also use your own password policy. Password writeback will allow your users to change and reset their passwords in the cloud and have your on-premises password policy applied. Device writeback will allow a device registered in Azure AD to be written back to on-premises Active Directory so it can be used for conditional access The prevent accidental deletes feature is turned on by default and protects your cloud directory from numerous deletes at the same time. By default it allows 500 deletes per run. You can change this setting depending on your organization size.
Highlights
- Sync your on-premises AD or AWS Managed Active Directory with Azure Active Directory
- Enable single sign on to Office365 for your federated users
- Enable 1 way or 2 way synchronization (Write back)

Dimensions summary
You pay by the hour based on the EC2 instance type you run. Each dimension maps to a specific instance size, so pricing scales with the compute, memory, and storage of the hardware you pick. Smaller types like the t3 and t2 families cost less per hour, while larger multi-xlarge and metal types cost more. This software supports syncing your on-premises or AWS directory with Microsoft cloud identity services. You choose the instance that fits your workload, and the hourly software fee is added on top of the standard AWS infrastructure charge.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
Each dimension maps to one running EC2 instance of that size. The hourly software fee covers the preconfigured sync server image on that instance. An instance is the virtual machine with set CPU, memory, and storage. You run one instance per selected dimension and pay for each hour it runs.
The software fee meters running time. A fully stopped instance does not accrue the hourly software charge. Stopped instances may still incur standard AWS storage fees for attached volumes. The software fee resumes when you start the instance again.
Two charges apply at the same time for the instance you run. The hourly software fee covers this preconfigured sync server image. The standard AWS infrastructure charge covers the underlying EC2 compute. Both scale with the instance size you pick and appear on the same invoice.

Amazon Machine Image (AMI)
An AMI is a virtual image that provides the information required to launch an instance. Amazon EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud) instances are virtual servers on which you can run your applications and workloads, offering varying combinations of CPU, memory, storage, and networking resources. You can launch as many instances from as many different AMIs as you need.
